Balls on bullies

[Pythonfriend]

sorry, didnt want to de-rail the thread....

i think if you know the snake and you know the dog and if you have reflexes its fine. so i dont really see anyhing wrong with the pictures. if its a really relaxed dog that wont bite, and a really relaxed ball python, and you can instantly intervene, then the risk should be so low that its acceptable.

about the terminology, my suggestion would be to just call them pit bull. these dogs face prejudice and legal problems in some areas that are quite similar to the problems some snakes and exotic pets face, and calling them bullies just sounds suggestive in a bad way. no big deal, just a bad choice of words, for outsiders it just sounds strange and raises eyebrows.

but i would like to see more pics if the dog is calm and wont bite, and its not unsupervised and there is someone there who could pick up the snake at any time, i see no problem.
